Meath retain their All-Ireland Ladies Football title with an exciting 3-10 to 1-7 win over Kerry in Sunday's Croke Park showpiece.

First, a swift Meath counter-attack culminated in Stacey Grimes passing to the impressive O'Sullivan, who palmed the ball into the empty net to give the defending champions a five-point cushion after 45 minutes. In a tense second half, Kerry pulled within one after Siofra O'Shea and Ni Mhuircheartaigh scores but an Emma Duggan free stretched Meath's lead out to two before two goals in three minutes put the game beyond the Munster county's reach. But after Stacey Grimes got Meath on the board, Troy found the back of the Kerry net after a superb assist from Kelsey Nesbitt.

With the score at 1-9 to 1-7 at the 3/4 stage two quick Meath goals put them out of sight Lorraine Scanlon pulled one back for the Kingdom and that turned out to be the closing score of the period. Those scores had the defending champions in front by 1 and Meath doubled that advantage by the quarter hour mark.

The goals from O’Sullivan and Lynch really killed whatever chance Kerry had in the second half. When Kerry did when clean ball they were turned over a number of times as the suffocating Meath wall of resistance had the Kerry attackers measure. Kerry failed to score for the rest of the game and Niamh O’Sullivan pointed in the 55th minute to seal an impressive Meath victory. Stacey Grimes slotted a free kick, and then Kelsey Nesbitt fed the marauding Emma Troy for a smashing goal in the ninth minute. The rest of the game belonged to Meath really as they set out their stall to maintain their lead, and try as they might Kerry couldn’t penetrate their concrete like rearguard. Kerry started the second half well though, and Siofra O’Shea and Louise Ní Mhuircheartaigh had them back to within a single point five minutes in.
